Capt Chad and mate Louis had the boys out for a safari overnighter. Got to the deep around 6pm found some life and started chunking. Had a big eye on in the first 30 mins breaking the leader.. few more hook ups in the next couple hours and then that was it! Between pulled hooks and break offs the night was night going well, but with great bait around the guys stuck it out with no action for the rest of the night. As the sun came up we decided to switch gears and go pot hopping for some Mahis. There was enough for everyone to get their lines tight. After that we did a drop for tiles and grabbed a couple. Finally with some meat in the box we went back to chunking. Rod goes off and a big eye grabbed our bait on a 250g black hole jigging rod that we we using for chunking and the fight was on! Ended up fighting it for over two hours. Got it to the surface and harpoon was in !Game over! The guys had enough and back to the barn we went!
